After selling the goods and buying the sundries, the trip to the city was almost done.

Lu Yuan looked at the sky, and at this time, the sun was high, and it was when the sun was at its strongest at noon.

This time to hurry, then there is no need to say, iron will dry you two pounds of sweat.

Carrying dozens of pounds back to the mountain against the poisonous sun is not a wonderful thing.

It happened that he had been busy all morning, and his stomach was grumbling, so he did not hesitate, and according to the usual example, he came to a simple tea stall in the south of the city.

The tea stall is called Chen Kee Tea Shop, which is written on a white cloth banner and hung outside as a signboard.

Lu Yuan stared at the canvas for a long time, and wrote down the four words “Chen Ji Tea Shop” over and over again in his heart.

After crossing over, he didn’t realize it at first, but after entering the city and seeing the signboards of the shops, he suddenly realized that he didn’t know the words of this world.

Although the world looks similar to the ancient times of the previous life, various social systems, local customs and similarities, but only similar.

If nothing else, in words, this life is very different from the previous life.

Although the text of this world is also the same as the Chinese characters in the previous life, it looks quite similar, but whether it is the radical and the pronunciation, it is completely different from the Chinese characters in the previous life.

It’s just similar in appearance, but the various meanings there are very different.

This is not the difference between simplified and traditional characters, it is more equivalent to the difference between Chinese and Japanese, but this difference is a little bigger.

Just like the “Chen Ji Tea Shop” in front of him, if Lu Yuan hadn’t asked the shopkeeper and knew that it was these four words, he wouldn’t have recognized what it meant if he wanted to break his head.

By analogy, that is to say, the words that Lu Yuan knew in his previous life would not be used in this life.

If he wanted to read, he had to learn it all over again.

“It seems that if I have a chance, I have to find a school teacher and let someone teach me how to read.” Lu Yuan thought to himself, and then there was a headache.

Reading is not a simple task.

Teacher fees, pen, ink, paper, and various costs that cannot be produced while studying are all very large expenses.

Although he now has a little deposit, but eight taels of silver, whether he can afford it, this is a question. But if you can’t

read, you can’t get into the world at all, and that’s absolutely impossible.

“There are still three or four months to go before the New Year, when the snow is heavy and you can’t hunt, so come to the city and ask how much it costs to go to a private school to read and write.” I hope I have enough silver then. Lu Yuan thought this in his heart.

After glancing at the four words “Chen Ji Tea Shop” again and confirming that he would not forget it, he walked into the tea stall.

The stall has a humble kitchen where the shopkeepers are serving some tea and snacks, and a large shed has been set up outside. There were seven or eight wooden tables under the shed, but the tables and chairs were all shabby, and the stains and ravines on them were all over the place, and they looked old.

This kind of street stall has always been popular with people at the bottom. The porters who work in the city, the

farmers and hunters who enter the city, they can’t afford to go to those big restaurants and tea houses, but they have to eat to quench their thirst, so they can only come to this kind of street shop.

Because it specializes in serving the bottom of the people, the food and water here in the tea beach are also very cheap.

The store makes its own rice wine, half mixed with water wine, and a bowl of salmon.

Coarse tea mixed with various tea foam, three bowls for a penny.

Yangchun somen noodles, a bowl of salmon money. If you want to add some sliced meat, ten dollars a bowl. There are also broad beans, peanuts, melon seeds and other side dishes with wine, a small plate for a penny.

Others include dough cakes, meatloaf, white cut meat, etc., and the prices vary.

Lu Yuan has always been a meatless person, and he rushed back to the mountains, and there were still dozens of miles of mountain roads, and he had no strength if he was not full.

Therefore, after entering the tea stall, he immediately shouted: “Lao Chen, come two meatloaf, a bowl of Yangchun noodles, a plate of marinated meat, and a bowl of rice wine.”

With that, he took out the fifty cents and handed them over. One meat

loaf is seven texts, a plate of marinated meat is thirty wen, counting Yangchun noodles and rice wine, several things add up, exactly fifty wen.

Just such a meal, the expenses of ordinary people for a day are gone. Every time he entered the city, he basically

came to Chen Ji tea soup to eat, although each time he entered the city had to be separated by one or two months, but it was nearly ten times a year.

In a few years, Lao Chen also knew that he had such a familiar customer.

So when he saw Lu Yuan, he immediately answered with a smile: “Okay, Da Lang, you sit first, and the meal will be served in a while.” The

meal was quick.

After all, the order is all cooked food, meat patties and marinated meat have long been prepared, and they can be served with rice wine. Blanch the noodles for a few minutes, sprinkle some salt and chopped green onion. It’s all simple food.

After being busy for a long time, Lu Yuan was already very hungry, so when the things came up, he immediately gobbled them up. Within a moment, the food in front of you was swept away.

When his stomach was full, he picked up the wine bowl, took a sip, then comfortably pricked up his ears and began to listen to the chatter of the people next to him.

Choosing such a tea stall to eat, of course, is not just for cheapness. All kinds of people in the

tea stalls are mixed, hard laborers in the city, farmers outside the city, merchants running from all over the world, and even occasionally you can see a few down-and-out martial artists in strong uniforms, and people from the south and the north of the world can be said to gather here.

Therefore, news circulates here everywhere. Whoever has something in the

city, where something big has happened in the field, in places like tea stalls, you can basically hear it.

“I heard that Liu Yuanwai’s family in the east of the city has a concubine, and her appearance is outstanding, like a heavenly fairy.” A coolie-looking man said.

“Old Man Liu is in his early sixties, and I don’t know if it’s okay, but at this age, taking such a wife is really enviable.”

“Don’t envy, his concubine, but the tofu Xi Shi in the east of the city.” Now it’s only fourteen, when I went to her house to buy tofu before, I saw that the skin was as tender as tofu, white and tender, and people couldn’t help but want to touch it. “The one who said this was a bastard, sharp-billed monkey cheeks, and a lewd face.

“Hey, don’t look at your virtue, as long as you still want to touch it, it’s better to do more good deeds in this life, and strive to have a good birth in the next life and think about it.”

As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of laughter in the stall.

Everyone looked at the wretched bastard, they all laughed happily, and between the laughter, the fatigue of the day seemed to be swept away.

Lu Yuan couldn’t help but smile.

The topic of old husbands and young wives has always been the focus of gossip, and it has been considered over the years and endured.

The atmosphere inside the tea stall gradually became warm.

“Ah-”

Suddenly, a scream was suddenly heard on the street, and then there was a chaotic crowd, chickens flying and dogs jumping, and the sound of smashing.

This kind of movement immediately attracted the people in the tea stall.

Lu Yuan also turned his head to look, and then his pupils shrank.

But I saw that at this time on the street, a blue-clothed swordsman jumped up at this time, and with a wave of the long sword in his hand, a black-clothed man in front of him spurted out blood and fell to the ground.

In broad daylight, someone actually killed people on the street!
